  "term": "Cardiogenic",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "Relating to an origin within the heart or caused by a malfunction of the heart. In developmental and reproductive toxicology, it describes adverse effects originating from cardiac dysfunction, such as cardiogenic shock, which is a state of inadequate tissue perfusion due to heart failure. This condition is characterized by low blood pressure (hypotension), reduced cardiac output, and signs of organ hypoperfusion, despite adequate intravascular volume.",
